Since they have a good head start, OK, a small one.
By the way, Snits are all the rage because they have continued to innovate.

Seems the BBC had not heard of her 6 years ago when they published this article:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/3182096.stm Interesting to note this guy had a portable version and only needed the full iron lung when sick. I noted that he had similar things to say about life in an iron lung. I wonder if he's still going?

I also found this story about an iron-lung patient killed by a power-cut in 2008. i wonder how many people are still living in these things?

Back in the 50s, you could buy an iron lung by saving Raleigh coupons.

My older brother got polio in 1954 while the family vacationed at a lake in upstate NY. he was lucky though. His main affliction was a smile that went up on one side of the mouth and down on the other. He also had very little muscle development in his right hand. His smile is better but not normal, and he built hand strength by taking up the bass fiddle in his jazz period in the mid 60's . He then went to asia as a zen yoga student where we lost track of him for many years. Now he has reamerged and is close to his family and is a potter which requires good hand muscle skills.
Don't know what the moral of the story is but he has really bad eyesight and very weak enamel in his teeth, could be from being a strict vegetarian in poor countries but who knows. Think I'll keep eating meat though... |

well yes and no. I assume you're talking about the wheel, in which case only one hand needs to be strong -the other one just needs to be steady. it's perfect for people with strength imbalances, because it will exercise the steadying hand.
